I don't know why people see the things that they do. I wouldn't pay to see them, they don't touch me or move me in any way.

I'm honest. I say what I feel. I try to be tactful, but I can't not say what I feel. I have a really big problem with that.

Boxing Helena was something that I think was pretty cool, but people judged it without even having seen it. It's not perfect, but I think for the story that we were trying to tell, it turned out pretty good. What it signified was really powerful to me: how society puts us in boxes one way or another.

I love to dance. But I don't like being up in front of tons of people. I didn't have that in me to do it, the desire to be performing in front of a lot of people. If there's a lot of people on a set, I get nervous. So music just wasn't something I ever seriously considered.

Twin Peaks was special because it was so groundbreaking. In the early 90s it really changed television a lot. A bunch of weird shows, like Northern Exposure, came on after that.

I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes.

People who think they know me would be surprised that my whole life doesn't revolve around sex.

If you're a young woman in Hollywood, then they want you to look a certain way and paint you in this and that. To this day, it's hard to find people like us, who want to kind of find deep truths, not just skirt above the top of it.

I remember my agent at the time called me and was like, I've got it! I've found it! I've found your role! I worked my ass off to get that role, because I think me and three or four other girls tested for it. But it was a great time.

I really loved Twin Peaks. When I saw the two-hour pilot, they screened it in the big theatre. I said, I don't know what is going to happen. I'm in this and I don't understand it. This is never going to sell. Who's going to watch this thing?

The studios have their list of five actresses and whether they're right or wrong for a role doesn't matter. It's how much money their last movie made.

In a perfect world, I could be doing some bigger films and balance that with some independent films because they seem to be the most challenging and unique

Generally, Hollywood makes the same stories over and over. I've never wanted to do the same thing twice. If a script doesn't surprise me in some way, I simply can't commit to the project.

I see people giving me looks because I'm so opinionated. That hurts my feelings, but at the end of the day I have to live with me and respect myself. And I've done enough things in my life where I was confused and didn't respect myself that I will not do it any more.
